German vintage '50-70 semi-flex stubs and those in oblique give the real thing in On Demand line variation. Modern Oblique is a waste of money for a shadow of line variation. Being too lazy to Hunt for affordable vintage oblique pens, lets you 'hunt' for line variation instead of having it.

The pens is lovely. I thought that my next pen would be a Vanishing Point with a modified nib, but now it seems that this has jumped to the head of the line. Now I just need to figure out what kind of nib I want...

Originally there were rumors that this would be a magnum sized pen with a dual-toned nib; so much for rumors. This looks to be the same size as the previous M101n editions and the same nib, just different colored materials. This pen now appears on the Pelikan web site and it is stated that this will come as a gift set with a package and bottle of ink with a "historic motif." This type of packaging I believe has been used on a number of past issues and are seen on ebay every now and then. Pelikan has left the retail price blank. Needless to say this looks a lot more appealing than the lizard M101N.

Thanks for sharing the news and photos. Although the repro pen is beautiful, I think Pelikan missed the opportunity to introduce it as the Magnum oversize pen. I might be wrong, perhaps, Pelikan might not recognise the Magnum pen as its original product hence the issuance of the usual 101N size. Just my 2 cents.

Just when I thought I was out, they puuuuuull me back in! Seriously, I'm buying the Visconti Homo Sapiens Crystal later this month, will probably buy the brown tortoise-shell M800 and the white tortoise-shell M600 and I was thinking that I wouldn't buy a new pen for a long time. And then I see this... Sigh. The original version of this was in my most wanted list.
